Temporary rentals after selling a home
📅 Sale date vs. withdrawal date
When you buy a new house or apartment, the move-in date does not always coincide with the sale of your current home.
For example, your existing home may have sold faster than expected, leaving you to wait another 2 months before you get the keys to your new home.
In that case, you need to look for a temporary residence.
🔍 Where do you find temporary housing after selling your old home?
The range of properties available for short-term rental is wider than you might think:
- Private rental: Some people who are going to live or work abroad for an extended period of time, for example, rent out their house temporarily. You can often find these offers through specialized websites or social media groups.
- Short-stay apartments: These are professional companies that rent out fully furnished apartments and studios for periods ranging from a few weeks to several months. This is the most flexible option and often includes all utilities.
- Vacation parks: Vacation parks also often offer the option of renting a mobile home or bungalow on a long-term basis. This can be a budget-friendly option, especially if you're renting outside of vacation periods.
💡 Important tips
- Record everything: Make sure the terms of the lease, term, termination arrangements and costs are clearly written down.
- Be flexible: Finding a rental property for exactly the period you want can be challenging. Be prepared to adapt your search to the available supply.
- Double move: Realize that this option means a double move: first to the temporary home and then to your new, permanent home. This may involve extra work and expense.
